-The resignations of Miss Grace Anient
and Miss Maud Robinson were received and
accepted and Miss Olive English of this
city wss elected to fill one of the vacancies
thus caused In the Corps of teachers. Her
salary was placed at 40.
The Salary of Robert Swaine of the high
school faculty was raised from 376 to 3S0
and that of Truant Officer Herner from
ISO to 356. (
Three offers were received for ' the old
high school property, as follows: J. J.
Hughes, 32,010; Charues Paschel, 32,000; J.
W. Bchott. .800. The board decided that
the property . wss . worth more thsn . the
highest amount offered and rejected all
three bids. There was more or less discis
sion relative to thi property. President
Westerdaht took the position that the
school district sheuld hold It, as In the
future It might be necessary to erect 'a
grade schol In that district. Member Hess
said he had been advised it would cost
from 3UO0O to IJ6.000 to brlpg the property
anywhere near grade, but this estimate.
Member Anderson contended, was too high.
The discussion was brought to a close by
the committee on buildings and . grounds
being authorised to secure the services of
a surveyor and ascertain the cost of grad
ing the property.
The kindergarten teachers are. no longer
to enjoy the privilege of leaving their school
buildings when their work Is done. The
grade teachers, it appeara, were Jealous of
this privilege, and at the suggestion of
Member Tinley the board Issued an order
last night that all teachers hencefo-th
must be In attendance In the building from
8:30 a. m. to 12 m. and from 1 p. m. to 8:46
p. m. Heretofore the kindergarten teach
ers, usually got away from the schools
about half an hour before the grade teach

crop for 1908. I.ast.YM""' crop Wn 348.000,.
000, or 80.000,000 less thsn Wells'-estlmat folr
this yenr. This estlmste of Secretary Wells
Is based on a 4 pet, cent Incresse- In
acreage and an Increase, of 8.4 per cent In
the growing condition of the crop, as shown
by the reports cf correspondent, as com
pared with lasf yenY. The estimate' does
not take Into consideration sny betterment
In the stand of corn and for thl reason
Secretary Wells declare that the tltnate
Is under rather thsn above -what the crop,
will actually "he. HI estlninte put the
average yield at 88 6 bushels per acre. F le
vator men and grain men generally have
been putting the figure at 400.ono.oro bushels
and still maintain IIVU that figure will be
reached when thi fart Is Considered that
the stand It much better this yers than
last. The best growing condition I re
ported from the southeaatem part of the
state. The estimate of Secretary Well la
the first estimate by anyone pretending to
keep posted hy actually getting reports
from over the state. The repnrts to Secre
tary Wells come from tlje' grain ' elevator
men over the state. The official state esti
mate made by Director Sage will not be
made until after the first frost, probably
not till October. It will be based on re
ports that are received from farmers in
each county of the state. ''

Stone men. stirred by the Investigations
and advice of State , Railroad Commis
sioner N. 8. Ketchum. appeared before the
railroad commission and asked for a re
duction In the freight .rates on stone In
Iowa. The stone men, principally Bur
roughs of Marshalltown, appeared before
the commission and showed that the,. Inter
state rates are such that the Indiana stone
quarries can furnish stone, to Iowa cheaper
Indiana quarries Are miles Safs ,Tne
stone men assert that the quarry business)
Jn Iowa Is .nearly dead because of tha
excessive ratea that . . are .charged for
freight. They argued that whereas a
fsw years ago stone was), used extensively
by railroads for ballast - and for. building
purposes It Is used very little , now and
cheaper articles ars used -because of the
big freight rates. -The commission will
